I really love lemon cupcakes. I am not sure if I always have, but lately they have been closing in on my sugar cookie cupcakes as one of my favorites. The recipes are very similar so it makes sense that I love them both. The frosting is so tasty, perfectly balanced between sweet and sour. I added yellow coloring to the frosting to play up the lemon flavor. These particular cupcakes were for a baby shower where they did not know the sex of the baby. You can see some green frosted cupcakes in the picture which are actually my sugar cookie cupcakes topped with green tinted vanilla frosting. I was not at this baby shower, as it was an order for a friend, but I was told by my friend who purchased the cupcakes that the future father thought they were better than Georgetown Cupcake. They are pretty big here in DC (and featured on TLC) so I take that as a pretty big compliment.

I hope you are not cupcaked out, because I have many more to show you!
